Overview
- Thai officials said a 63-year-old villager was killed by a rocket from Cambodia on Sunday in Sisaket province, the first civilian death Thailand has reported in the latest round of fighting.
- Both sides reported continued hostilities, with Thailand conducting airstrikes and a navy ship exchanging fire off Koh Kong as Cambodia alleged fresh F-16 bombings and said attacks were ongoing.
- Bangkok denied agreeing to an immediate halt to fire after President Trump announced a deal, and Thailand’s foreign minister said parts of Trump’s statement did not accurately reflect the situation.
- Cambodia closed all border crossings following renewed strikes, as Malaysia proposed a ceasefire to begin on December 13 at 22:00 with ASEAN observers and a U.S. satellite assessment.
- Official tallies diverged, with Thailand reporting 15 soldiers killed and the first civilian death, estimating hundreds of Cambodian military casualties that Phnom Penh disputes, while Cambodia reported at least 11 civilian deaths and roughly half a million people displaced on both sides.
